69.61.239.218:

On the few packages I could find that had the term (some G1 and MW boxes), it was conspicuously capitalized. So I've used "Tech Specs" when talking about the actual technical-specifications chart, and I've used "tech specs" for the casual definition of the whole bio/art/TS group.

Also, I heartily encourage fact-checking, especially in the Armada part. I have confidence in everything I wrote, but not much evidence to back it up (especially the Hasbro-misunderstanding rumor). And my knowledge only becomes shakier after that, so I stopped myself for good measure.

If I had more time, I'd do some more digging with regards to the quirks of G1 Tech-Speckery, like the different categories for the Micromaster teams, or the specific ratings on the Headmaster toys. But I don't, so I invite anybody who's interested to go for it. - [[User:Jackpot|Jackpot]] 18:43, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

:When in doubt, mark a section with <nowiki>{{fact}}</nowiki> (a request for a supporting citation) indicating you ''think'' this is right, but you're unsure enough that you'd appreciate a concrete example. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 20:04, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

::I think the article has things backwards. Most of the RID toys had full writeups and quotes. It was in Armada that we got nothing at all. The stickers had no numbers on them. We didn't get even the numbers back until Energon.--[[User:Thylacine 2000|Thylacine 2000]] 21:40, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

There were Energon Bio trading cards with some of the toys.
Oddly, my Jetfire had a tech spec card and a bio card. Just mentioning. --[[User:Chiasaur11|Chiasaur11]]
:That was actually something that seemed to vary from shipment to shipment. Some had one, some had the other, some had both. I've seen different pack-ins even for the same toy.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 20:33, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
::I really stopped paying attention to Tech Spec stuff around that time, so if you want to throw Energon info in there, be my guest. Also, I don't know when they started printing 'em on the packaging again, but if anyone else knows, that'd be good to have in there too. - [[User:Jackpot|Jackpot]] 20:42, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
:::Believe they started ending up on the packaging again as of Cybertron. I remember amassing a nice little stack of tech spec cards from Energon, then being disappointed that Cybertron lacked them.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 21:21, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Weren't there bios for the ''Armada'' characters online from pretty much the outset of the line? - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 22:13, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

When did they switch from '''Firepower''' to '''Fireblast'''?<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>
